LinkedIn Jobs Scraper — public job listings with parsed salary, no login, no auto-apply

Scrape LinkedIn jobs into a clean, analysis-ready spreadsheet. Give this actor job titles and a location and get back one row per posting: title, company, location, parsed salary (min/max/period plus the raw string), employment type, seniority, job function, sector, applicant count as an integer, recruiter, posting date, and the job URL — each row topped with a 0–100 job score so the freshest, best-documented, salary-showing listings sort first. Built for job seekers, recruiters, job-board builders, and labor-market analysts. It reads only public, logged-out listings — no LinkedIn login, no cookies, and it never auto-applies. Pay-per-result: $5 per 1,000 jobs.

What it does

• Searches LinkedIn's public job listings by keyword and location — postings are fetched through the valig/linkedin-jobs-scraper data provider, with your native filters (date posted, experience level, employment type, remote/on-site/hybrid, specific companies) applied at the source.
• Parses salaries into numbers: "$115,000.00/yr - $120,000.00/yr" becomes salaryMin: 115000, salaryMax: 120000, salaryPeriod: "year" — and the minSalary filter annualizes hourly/monthly pay before comparing.
• Derives an isRemote flag by scanning the title, location, and description for remote/WFH signals (LinkedIn's own field for this isn't exposed on public listings).
• Parses applicant counts to integers so you can filter to low-competition roles with maxApplicants.
• Normalizes and cleans: posting dates to YYYY-MM-DD, tracking parameters stripped from job URLs, whitespace collapsed, duplicates removed across all your search queries.
• Scores every job 0–100 — salary shown +25, freshness up to +25, full description +20, seniority/sector present +12, company present +8 — and sorts the dataset best-first (ties broken by highest salary).
• Applies your client-side filters after cleaning: requireSalary, minSalary (annualized), easyApplyOnly, maxApplicants.

Use cases

• Job search automation — schedule a daily run for your target titles, filter to r86400 (past 24 h) and low applicant counts, and be among the first applicants.
• Recruiting intelligence — see which companies are hiring for a role, at what advertised salary, and how much competition each posting draws.
• Job-board aggregation — feed a niche job board with clean, deduped LinkedIn postings including salary data where shown.
• Salary benchmarking — collect the minority of postings that disclose pay and analyze salaryMin/salaryMax by title and region.
• Labor-market research — track posting volume, seniority mix, and remote share across sectors over time.

Pricing

This actor uses Apify pay-per-event pricing: $5 per 1,000 jobs ($0.005 per result). You're charged only for the cleaned listings delivered after dedup and your filters — with requireSalary on, listings without pay data cost you nothing. No subscription, no charge for empty runs. Use maxItems and the filters to keep cost predictable: a daily 100-job tracked search costs about $0.50/month. The free Apify plan is enough to try it on a real search first.

Tips / FAQ

Does this apply to jobs for me? No. It only collects public listings into a dataset — it never logs in and never submits an application, including Easy Apply.

Do I need a LinkedIn account or cookie? No. It scrapes the public, logged-out job search — no li_at cookie, no credentials, no API key.

Why is salary usually empty? LinkedIn shows pay on a minority of postings. The parser fills salaryMin/salaryMax/salaryPeriod whenever a figure appears; use requireSalary to keep only those rows.

What's the difference between jobFunction and isRemote? jobFunction is the role area LinkedIn lists (e.g. "Information Technology"). Remote status isn't a separate public field, so isRemote is derived from remote/WFH keywords in the title, location, and description — treat it as a strong signal, not gospel.

Where does the data come from, and what if the source is down? Listings come via an upstream data provider (valig/linkedin-jobs-scraper). If one query fails it's skipped and the run continues; on a full transient outage the run ends gracefully with a "temporarily unavailable — please retry" message and you're charged nothing.

Is scraping LinkedIn jobs legal? This collects public job data only, from logged-out pages. LinkedIn rate-limits aggressively and restricts automated access in its terms, so expect occasional partial runs; use the data for personal, research, or recruiting purposes and follow local law.
